Name: Lisa Snowdon
DOB: 1974
Place of Birth: Welwyn Garden City, England, U.K.
Occupation: Model
Lisa Snowdon (nee Lisa Snawdon) was born in 1974, in
Welwyn Garden City, England. The Hertfordshire beauty
was a waitress before appearing from oblivion.
She moved to London, and was soon discovered by a Premier
Model Management agent while shaking her booty at a
nightclub. And hence, a model was born.
Lisa has appeared in major fashion magazines such as
Vogue, Marie Claire and Cosmopolitan, as well as the
occasional men's magazine, including GQ, Esquire and
FHM. The latter seemed to be a huge fan of Lisa, as
it featured her in 2 of its calendars, as well as chose
Lisa to grace the cover of the 1999 edition of "The
Girls of FHM".
But even with Lisa's magazine spreads and her work
with big-time photographers like David Bailey, Nick
Knight, Kim Knott, and Andre Rau, Lisa is best known
for her commercial work.
In the UK, Lisa is known as the model in the Kellogg's
Special K commercial (the girl in the red swimsuit),
while her biggest claim to fame was an ad for Faberge's
"Addiction", a steamy perfume commercial.
Her other commercial work includes Lynx deodorant,
Dove soap, Gossard, Mercedes Benz, and Neutrogena, among
many others. Lisa's most memorable one must be a Martini
ad featuring her and George Clooney, shot in Italy.
Although the ad didn't air on American television, Americans
know Lisa as George Clooney's steady girlfriend -- or
to women -- as the girl who stole America's most eligible
bachelor.
Apparently, Clooney called Lisa a little after the
shoot, and invited her back to his place in the States.
They've been seen at public affairs in both the US and
on Lisa's side of the pond ever since.
A graduate of the Italia Conti School of Performing
Arts, Lisa has also taken her talent and beauty to the
screen with a starring role in "Man's Best Friend",
a Channel 4 short film. She's sure to receive more exposure
as the host of MTV UK's Select. She has hosting experience
after working as a presenter for several of street.tv's
shows.
Amid the hosting duties, modeling and capturing the
hearts of men everywhere, Lisa also released her own
album, Spell It Out, in 1997. Despite a lucrative record
deal and a track being featured on the popular "Addiction"
advertisement, the album flopped.
Lisa doesn't need the music scene anyhow. She's only
got a potential mega modeling career and television
hosting duties up her sleeve.
